Ross - Not to add fuel to the fire, but you do realize that Qt is 
GPL/LGPL and the source is available. Even if Thiago et al doesn't 
update QDom from here till eternity, you still could take the source for 
QDom, add it to your own source control repo and update it yourself? 
QDom won't disappear off the face of the planet, it just won't get 
updated by Trolltech - you could still update it to keep it usable with 
future Qt versions once Trolltech (in the far future) drops it...

Just my thoughts... I've had to do this with other open source projects 
that I relied on, but the maintainers changed direction. So I just 
grabbed a copy of their source at the point that it worked for me and 
added it to my repo for use internally, and updated it to work with more 
recent versions of Qt.

Cheers!
